Yeah, true. Maybe he's off cutting up that 68 cab for the parts I need!

 

Naw..........he's out there on the mountain top yelling CQ CQ CQ DX over and over again!

 

Howdy Jim. Well, whatever keeps him occupied.....LOL!

 

I don't think Don has to worry about keeping himself occupied, it just comes natural to him....lol

 

Hey Allen! Yeah, he's definitively got enough toys/projects to keep him busy!

 

Good morning everybody.

My dad and I usually go out to the Rock Pile out of Newport, about 15 miles out. Last year we didn't get out much but caught a 25 pounder and a 55 pounder.
Nothing like my 113 pounder up off the north coast of Vancouver Island though!

 

Howdie Brownie! We're trying to figure out what Don might be up today.

 

I usually go out to the peripheries of the pile since we can't bottom or ground fish on top of it anymore. This year they have a bunch gear moored near the NW corner that extends to the west of the pile that they want you to stay out of as well.

Chicken Ranch, Banana and Daisy are also good spots, but they are twice as far to get to, 30 to 35 miles. The big ones we get usually come from around the pile anyway.

 

im back.. and so incredibly stoked!!!! i was talking with my wife at lunch and she gave me the ok to start working on and restoring my dads 81 bronco with a 300-6 it has been in the family since 1990 and it is the vehicle i learned to drive in!!!

 

Are you going to start a build thread in the Idaho chapter or the Bronco section?

 

Yeah, we'll expect progress reports! Congrats Micah, that's awesome!

 

it will be in the bronco section...

 

Yeah, we don't ever go out to the chicken ranch, mostly small fish and too long of a trip out there. We usually do well around the rock pile. No specific spot, just find a depth and looks good and go with it...

That's awesome Micah! Should be a fun project.

I had a '81 Bronco with a 351M, talk about a worthless motor... I would have prefered the 300-6, I had a 300 in my '87 F150 which was my first vehicle. Lots of memories driving that 2wd 4-speed.

 

i love the 300 i have owned a few of them and it is a fine motor!!!

 

Yep, my favorite Ford motors are the 7.3 diesels, FE V8's, and 300-6

Non-Ford... Cummins! As long as it's in a Ford. haha
